Modifying Existing Fixture Profiles

Both built-in and user-created fixture profiles can be modified. Modifying a built-in fixture can be useful for creating templates that are more specific to your setup.

To modify a built-in fixture, search for the desired fixture and click “duplicate fixture profile,” then follow the below steps.

Adding Modes

Locate and click the top-level menu button beside the fixture name and manufacturer. Click add mode and follow the steps laid out under (see Creating Fixture Profiles article)

Changing A Fixture Name and Manufacturer

In the same menu click “Edit Fixture Profile”. In the pop-up window, you can change your fixture profile’s name and manufacturer.

Downloading a Fixture Profile

The top-level menu button beside the fixture name and manufacturer also provides the functionality to download a fixture. Downloading a fixture can be useful if you want to share a fixture you created on your device or have a backup in case of a Factory Reset or a system malfunction.  

Duplicate Fixture Profile

The same menu button also allows users to duplicate their fixtures. This feature is used to duplicate and modify fixtures other than the fixtures found in the built-in library. 

Deleting Fixture Profiles

The final section of the menu button allows users to delete their fixtures. Once a fixture is deleted, it cannot be restored. 

Adding Channels to Modes and Deleting Modes

Click on a mode. In the menu button located beside the “# Channel Mode,” users can delete modes or add channels to the selected mode. Once a mode is deleted, it cannot be restored:

•  Add mode

• Duplicate mode

• Delete Mode 

Once a mode is deleted it cannot be restored. 

Changing channel Name and Type, Duplicating Channels, and Deleting Channels

In the menu button located on each channel, users have the ability to change channel type, name, and static value settings by clicking “edit channel”. Similarly, channels can be duplicated and deleted with the same menu button. Once a channel is deleted, it cannot be restored.
